Tree and woodland management project to take place across campus

From Monday 24 February until Friday 21 March, tree and woodland management work, including the removal of some trees, will take place across campus.

As part of an ongoing project to maintain the health and safety of trees and woodlands, tree management activities, including tree felling, will be carried out in various locations across campus.

The majority of tree felling is due to issues caused by Ash Dieback, a fungal disease that weakens trees over time, making them unsafe and prone to failure. Trees are regularly monitored by the Facilities Grounds team and will only be removed when necessary or where there is a safety concern.

There may be some localised disruption and access exclusions, but these will be temporary and for short periods while the work is completed.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, if you have any queries, please contact the Facilities Helpdesk on facilities.helpdesk@lancaster.ac.uk or 01524 593333 (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm).
